Farmers Markets near Frederick, MD

Frederick

The YMCA of Frederick County hosts a farmers market on North Market Street downtown, running Wednesdays from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m., May through October. Produce, baked goods, wine, jewelry, and popcorn vendors fill the lineup, and the market doubles SNAP/EBT benefits up to $20 a day for qualifying shoppers. It sits inside the same downtown grid as Frederick's shops and restaurants rather than a standalone lot.

Frederick

Frederick City Market runs Sundays, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., through late November, with free parking on Sundays including a small lot next to the market. It moved in 2025 from its long-time North Market Street corner to a new spot up the block at 662 N. Market St. — worth double-checking the address before a visit. Expect a mix of produce, artisan goods, and handmade crafts from local vendors.

Frederick

This farmers market runs only during the Great Frederick Fair itself — nine days in September, with 2026 dates set for September 18 through 26 — on the fairgrounds at East Patrick Street. Expect fresh produce, baked goods, flowers, and artisan products sold alongside the fair's livestock shows and midway. It's tied to one of the state's largest county fairs, whose Facebook following runs close to 50,000.

Frederick

This Frederick market runs a single day a week — Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. — at 1215 West Patrick Street, and closes the rest of the week. It's built as a traditional cooperative, meaning the vendors themselves run the show rather than a hired promoter, selling produce, baked goods, artisanal foods, and handmade crafts. Call ahead with questions before making the trip.

Hosted at Grace Community Church on Old National Pike in Frederick, this seasonal market runs spring through fall with fresh fruit, vegetables, baked goods, flowers, and craft items from area vendors.

The Middletown Farmers Market fills the CRUCC parking lot on South Church Street every Thursday from 4 to 7 p.m., May through mid-October.

This farmers market operates on the grounds of Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard in Dickerson, about 30 minutes from the Capital Beltway. Local growers sell seasonal fruit, vegetables, baked goods, and flowers spring through fall, giving winery visitors a stop for fresh food alongside the estate's Bordeaux-style wines. The rolling vineyard setting makes it more destination than errand.

Brunswick Area Farmers' Market sets up on West Potomac Street in this small Frederick County railroad town, selling seasonal produce, local meats, and specialty goods through the growing season.

Boonsboro

Damascus

Run out of the Damascus FFA grounds on Ridge Road, this Saturday market (9 a.m. to noon) leans on a rotating lineup of small local sellers — Anam Cara Egg Farm for eggs, Pheasant Hill Farm and Willowponds Hydroponics for produce, and home-based vendors like CC Hsu selling jams, jellies, and baked goods. It's a modest, FFA-organized market rather than a big-production event, built around the same families showing up week to week.

Mount Airy

Mount Airy's Farmers Market sets up Wednesdays from 3 to 7 p.m., June through September, near the town's historic train station on North Main Street. Local vendors sell produce, honey, eggs, meats, baked goods, and handmade jewelry, with live entertainment most weeks. The market is organized by the Town of Mount Airy rather than a private vendor group.

Emmitsburg

Emmitsburg's market has run Fridays, 3 to 6:30 p.m., from late June through mid-October on South Seton Avenue, selling organic food, local specialties, vegetables, fruit, and crafts, with WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program benefits accepted. The town closed out its most recent season and is rebuilding the event for 2026 under a new name, Emmitsburg Fun, Farm and Family Day. Contact the town's market coordinator for the new format.

Lovettsville's market sits on South Berlin Pike in far northern Loudoun County, the old "German Settlement" between the Potomac and the Maryland and West Virginia lines. Farms here work the rolling land above the river. The seasonal market draws area growers and small food producers to this small town north of Route 7, near the Point of Rocks bridge.

Poolesville

Germantown

The Upcounty Hub is a farmers market at 12900 Middlebrook Road in Germantown, serving Montgomery County's upcounty communities north of the I-270 corridor. No independent website or social page was found to confirm current market days or vendor list.

Hagerstown

Meritus Medical Center hosts a farmers market on its Hagerstown campus every Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. during the growing season. Regional vendors sell fresh vegetables, fruit, eggs, milk, meat, and baked goods, and the hospital's Community Health Team sets up free blood pressure and pre-diabetes screenings alongside the stalls — a hospital-campus market rather than a downtown or park setting.

Sharpsburg

Taneytown

Taneytown's farmers market brings together Carroll County growers like Natural Key Farm, Brennan's Produce, and Langelo Farms along East Baltimore Street, with Stone House Bakery among the regular prepared-food vendors. Listed locations have shifted in recent years between Baltimore Street, Memorial Park, and a parking lot on Old Taneytown Pike, so confirm the current site before visiting.

Montgomery Village

Montgomery Village's farmers market sets up Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the parking lot of Christ the Servant Lutheran Church on Centerway Road. Vendors including Abundant Grace Farm, Canela Bakery, and Holy Crepes sell produce and prepared foods to the surrounding community. The market was built specifically to give this planned community a weekly gathering point, not just a shopping stop.

The National Drive-Thru Market operated at 18980 Upper Belmont Place in Leesburg, near the National Conference Center grounds in Loudoun County. The drive-thru format let shoppers pick up local produce and farm goods without leaving their cars, a model that spread across Northern Virginia during the pandemic. Loudoun is prime farm-and-vineyard country west of Washington. Verify whether the market still runs, and on what schedule, before heading out.

Gaithersburg's Main Street Farmers Market runs year-round, Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Main Street Pavilion.

The market accepts SNAP/EBT, eWIC, FMNP, and Montgomery Moves More e-Incentive cards, making it one of the few markets in the county running through winter.

Waynesboro

Leesburg

The Leesburg Saturday Farmers Market runs year-round at the Virginia Village Shopping Center on Catoctin Circle SE, with summer hours of 8 a.m. to noon from May through October. More than 50 vendors bring grass-fed meat, goat cheese and milk, fresh produce and berries, artisan bread, honey and maple syrup, plants and flowers, and prepared foods from empanadas to pho. Loudoun Valley HomeGrown Markets operates it.

Gaithersburg

Hagerstown

Records point to 1773 as the founding year for this Hagerstown market, which would make it the oldest continuously operating farmers market in Maryland — older than the city's own incorporation. It runs Sundays, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., May through September, at 25 W. Church Street. Main Street Hagerstown has been rebuilding the market's vendor program for 2026; check for the new application cycle before assuming last year's schedule holds.

Hillsboro

The Hillsboro Farmers Market gathers along Charles Town Pike (Route 9) in Hillsboro, a tiny stone-built village in western Loudoun County near the Blue Ridge and the county's wineries and orchards. Growers from the surrounding farms bring seasonal produce and homemade goods. Hillsboro is one of Virginia's smallest incorporated towns, known for its 18th-century stone houses.

Shepherdstown

The Shepherdstown Farmers' Market runs on South King Street in this historic Potomac River town in Jefferson County, home to Shepherd University and one of the oldest settlements in the state. It's a long-running Saturday market in a walkable college town near the Antietam battlefield. Growers from the Eastern Panhandle bring seasonal produce, eggs, and homemade goods.

Rockville

The Cascades Farmers Market sets up at the senior center lot in the Cascades area of Sterling, in eastern Loudoun County. Loudoun holds one of Northern Virginia's most active farm belts, so seasonal markets here draw vegetables, orchard fruit, meats, and baked goods from county growers.

Rockville

Milk Lady Markets runs this Saturday market (9 a.m. to 1 p.m., May through October) in the lot outside Neighborhood Church of Rockville on Redland Road. Vendors sell farm produce and meats alongside breakfast tacos, croissants, quiches, honey, jams, coffee, and local artwork — more of a full breakfast stop than a bare produce stand. Established in 2018, it runs rain or shine, no weather cancellations.

Rockville

Rockville

This Saturday market runs at 518 Goldsmith Lane in Great Falls, a wooded Fairfax County community near the Potomac in Northern Virginia. Regional farms and food makers sell produce, meat, bread, and eggs to area residents. Like most Northern Virginia markets, it follows the spring-through-fall growing season.

Purcellville

Westminster

Carroll County Farmers Market is the oldest running market in the county and the second-oldest in Maryland, set up at the Agriculture Center on Agriculture Center Drive in Westminster. On a full Saturday it can pull 75 to 100 vendors selling seasonal produce, pasture-raised meat, local eggs, honey, jams, and baked goods — big enough to function as the county's default grocery run in season.

This Saturday market runs at Loudoun Station, the mixed-use development beside the Ashburn Metro stop at the end of the Silver Line. Central Station Drive sits in eastern Loudoun County, one of the fastest-growing corners of Northern Virginia. Vendors bring produce and prepared food to the plaza during the warmer months for the surrounding apartment and office crowd.

Rockville

This Wednesday market ran outside Dawson's Market, the specialty grocer on North Washington Street in downtown Rockville, from May through September — produce, gourmet cheese, baked goods, meat, and seafood pulled partly from the store's own local sourcing. Dawson's Market closed permanently in June 2024 after twelve years, and there's no indication the outdoor market has continued under a different host. Anyone updating this listing should confirm whether it still runs at all.
